Introduction
The Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) is a professional degree that prepares graduates to enter the workforce as designers and/or art directors upon graduation. In addition to the liberal arts core, our program establishes a strong foundation in fundamental visual and technical skills, design theory, and graphic design history. This degree requires two-thirds of the credit hours completed at the university in the explicit design curriculum but does not require a minor or a foreign language.
Several more in-depth topics courses round out the curriculum, including typography, advertising, packaging, corporate identity, editorial, web, and interactive media. A creative internship is also required during the summer between junior and senior year. Our capstone classes, Portfolio & Marketing and Senior Thesis, divide their focus among research-based creative problem solving, finishing a competitive portfolio, and job-hunting methodology.
